Which code corresponds to the description BRUSH/GRASS/LEAF/TREE FIRE?

• A. FBGL
• B. FBOT
• C. FBWD
• D. FASS

Answer: (A)

Vegetation-fire codes use a prefix that identifies the incident type and a suffix that names the fuels involved. BRUSH/GRASS/LEAF/TREE FIRE refers to a fire involving various vegetation fuels. The code that fits is FBGL, where FB signals a vegetation fire and GL designates Grass/Leaves as the fuels. This combination matches the description by pointing to a brush/grass/leaf fuel scenario. The other codes would point to different incident types or different fuel categories, so they don’t describe this vegetation fire.
